The Nat Cicco Aniversario 1965 Liga No. 4 Toro is a great tasting cigar, which only goes to show that great things may indeed come from modest beginnings. As can be guessed from the name, the first Nat Cicco frontmark was released in the mid-’60s, but that machine-bunched, mixed-filler stogie is an ancient relic compared to the Aniversario 1965. Expertly crafted at the hands of skilled torcedors from beginning to end, this 92-rated smoke contains aged longleaf Nicaraguan filler tobaccos beneath a Nicaraguan binder and an Ecuadorian Habano wrapper. The result is a full-bodied experience loaded with traditional style and flavor.
Finished with a classic pigtail cap and light box press, the 6” X 52 Nat Cicco Aniversario 1965 Liga No. 4 Toro certainly carries a refined appearance in keeping with the company’s increasing attention to quality and detail. The espresso-colored Habano wrapper is flawlessly applied atop the juicy tobaccos within and displays a decent amount of both tooth and oil while smelling of rich cocoa. An excellent draw allows a freshly lighted vitola to swathe the smoker’s palate in almonds, leather, and a touch of black pepper. The second third provides welcome hints of allspice, citrus, and dark chocolate to blend with the earth and coffee that form the major flavors of the profile, while the final stages of this cigar culminate with a rush of cream, molasses, and toasted cedar.
Nat Cicco smokes were originally the darlings of the bargain-bin, and they’ve carried that commitment to value forward to this day. Priced well below what we think they could be, we will nonetheless honor their creator’s wishes and present to you these fine premium Nat Cicco Aniversario 1965 Liga No. 4 Toro cigars at the best prices around.
